Invalid XML

["Daniel Zingaro" <daniel_zingaro@cogeco.ca>]

Hi all,

 

According to the XML specification, I believe the following nesting structure to be invalid in XML. However, rxp on my Windows machine issues no warnings to me when parsed. Is this in fact invalid?

 

 <?xml version="1.1"?>
<library>
<book>
<title>Book Name</title>
<chapters>
<name>first chapter</name>
<name>second</name>
...
<name>last</name>
<subsection>
<name>I expect this to be illegal, since name is defined in chapters, and also somewhere else in its content, namely subsection.</name>
</subsection>
</chapters>

</book>
</library>

 

Thanks very much,

Dan
